About This Game Have you ever had so bad day that you just wanted to go away from the humanity and relax? Now you can go to the Moon. Or to the Mars. That isn't far enough? No problem, go to another star system. Check yourself why TRAPPIST-1 planets don't have any forms of life. Another feature of the Virtual Telescope is to give you the actual star sky and solar system state which depend on your current geolocation and time. You can change zoom or lens size and get information about a selected object or just watch events like solar and lunar eclipses. 7aa9394dea Title: Virtual telescopeGenre: Indie, Simulation, Education, Early AccessDeveloper:Anton ShatalovPublisher:Anton ShatalovRelease Date: 16 Jul, 2018 Virtual Telescope Download For Windows 7 Amazing simulation! Using VR to discover the night sky above your city is great! The simulation lets you travel to any place in space and time and thus you can watch the sunrise on Mars or the solar eclipse you missed last year - fantastic! There are several premade events (like the blood moon from last month) which can be selected directly. However while the simulation itself is great already everything else is still a bit rough and needs some more work. The graphics look good, but I get reprojections (Ryzen7-1700X, 8GB, Nvidia GTX1070). The userinterface is very annoying: using the touchpad of the Vive you control a dot (like a mouse-pointer) and by pressing the touchpad an option is selected. This sounds ok, but the touchpad is rather inprecise and when trying to press it, the dot jumps to a different position. One of the biggest features is the control of time especially its speed. But to increase or decrease the speed you need to aim at small buttons using this dot. A different scheme for time control would be nice and an extra option to just pause time (currently after max speed comes pause before it goes reverse in max speed, which makes it even harder to stop at the desired moment).. Cant recommend this experience as of Nov 2018 until some showstoppers are fixed:-the virtual telescope model needs to actually "work" - that is, looking in the eye peice should do *something*-the UI is woefully bad guys.. please get some help with this. At minimum these need fixing: -Dont use the vive trackpad as a mouse. In VR it's more intuitive to press the buttons in 3d space with the tip of the controller, or at a lazy minimum point at the buttons using the controller as a laser pointer. -Keyboard should be QWERTY, not alphabetical.-get rid of the tutorial. Needing a tutorial signals that the app is not intuitive. Use things like tooltips to explain the UI elements, and labels on the vive controllers to describe what the buttons will do. I'll say it again. Get rid of the tutorial. Bin it and find a better way. It doesnt help that the tutorial currently is mandatory.Good luck guys.. Bit lacking in content for now. All you have for now is the main planets which you can travel to. Controls are a bit clunky as well. But for the price made for a lovely time gazing at the flickering stars and teleporting round around saturn.. Fantastic experience!. Haven't played very far in-depth. As other reviewers have mentioned, the controls are a little clunky (using the touchpad instead of pointing at things on a menu), I was a bit annoyed during my first playthrough when I had to complete the tutorial twice--once on each hand. Couldn't figure out how to get the telescope working (If it works?), but the sky was pretty nevertheless. I especially liked being able to walk across the surface of Venus. So cool!As the game is now, it's very barebones and I wouldn't recommend it, but I think as the development team keeps working on it, it could make for an incredible experience.. can not type anything in the search bar. thus can not use the program.refunded. Today, thanks to Virtual Telescope, I could travel to the Moon.I have been all my life dreaming with walking on the Moon myself, but I never thought of becoming an astronaut, so it seemed like something I could never do.I cried, a lot. I can only say thank you.Feelings aside, I think you could improve the control system, and maybe choosing visiting other planets when discovering them on the sky, instead of having to write their names on the "tablet" we have on our hands.But still, for being a early access game, it is reaaaaally good. Thank you guys, truly.
